breeding really hasn't been super expensive for me, I use live an home made frozen foods. my expenses come from dry and commercial frozen foods, sponge filters, air hose, and brine shrimp eggs. I go through so many brine shrimp XD but I also breed guppies Corydoras and a couple species of killiefish. so live feeder cultures like grindal worms are a life saver. for jars I use half gallon juice bottles i only have to change them every other day ^^ I also heat my whole fish room with an oil filled radiator. yes I'm planning on a 5th and 6th spawn right now I'm just waiting to clear out grow outs so I need buyers :)

Hey! 2 months into my first Betta spawn, your videos have been an immense help!

I have never tried breeding but if I needed to store bettas individually, I would get a 1 inch internal piece of pvc and make a spray bar about 4 feet long. Cap it at both ends and drill holes every 4 inches. Then get a cheap adjustable pump from amazon for like 6 bucks and feed the spray bar. Then take 10 x 1 quart mason jars pitch the metal lid keep the ring, and cut knit backing to replace the lid. Put a chunk of lava rock in the bottom to add surface area for micro organisms. Put the new mesh lid on. Then line up your quart jars so the spray bar fills the jar. 1 hole per jar place in a container (with wall mounted guttering you could make a rack) that will catch the water as the jars over flow and also houses the pump. Keep the flow low on the pump. It will be a larger easier system to manage and the constant over flow will keep the jars clean. Maybe throw some java moss in there with them. I have never built this but it would work.

I've been researching betta breeding for well over half a year. I've saved up for a lot of fish stuff for the babies. In order to get the feel of taking care of gentler betta, I adopted a really tiny fry betta from a friend and babied her to a pretty big juvenile compared to how small she was before. I have also adopted a few betta I paid extra for to pick out the ones from the back of the store that looked the healthiest. I've had them for about a year now so they are used to me. If I like how it goes with my four betta (1 spawn at a time). It seems like a fun project. In about 4-6 years I will probably have a good betta thing going if all goes well.

Betta Fish Thats wonderful, I'm glad they are doing well so far. I think you can do both in terms of sales. Try online and any fish you have a hard time selling ypu can sell to the fish store. Aquabid.com is great as well as ebay. Try to share your fry on social media now..to build up a small waiting list of potential homes. This will make selling easier later.
